Smokin like MOFO...HELP PLEASE
 
I just finished my full install last night and I was out for a drive and my rad decided to let let go and my ------ car over heated. I think I cooked the fucker cause now I'm getting a good smoke show out the tail pipe. But what I don't understand is that the car still pulls hard, no loss in power but it idles a little ruff. The smoke seems to be a white colour, do you think the seals went in my turbo? Head gasket. Please help me.

White smoke seems to indicate that you are getting coolant into your combustion chamber. You may have damaged your head or headgastet in the overheat.

Thats my guess, let me know how it turns out and good luck. I've done the same thing before...overheated and I cracked my head.

Thanks. Hopefully have it checked out tonight. I'm ready to ------- snap cause I've been working on this project for the last four months and my first night out with it and this happens >:(
